Tour with a great coverage of the Medina. The Palace and the Toombs are the highlights but I really enjoyed the spice / tea store and the Royal tea which I started drinking since. Ali is very professional, knowledgeable and picks up the pace of the guests quickly. Highly recommended.

May_P, Aug 2026
Mouhsine was our guide and he was great. The tour was very informative and enjoyable. Such a wonderful experience. We had one guest in this tour group who showed up agitated and later went on to have a tantrum and storming 3/4 of the way in. Mouhsine handled it well and made sure the rest of the group was not affected and still finished the tour happy. I would highly recommend this tour.

Informative and interesting

Amie_S, Aug 2026

This is an excellent tour, and the guide was very knowledgeable. He was also able to provide advice on what else to do in Marrakech, which was very appreciated.

Great tour!

WilianAbner_D, Aug 2026
It was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Mr Mouhssine, is an excellent teacher and has a gentle way of teaching. I really enjoyed learning more about the history of Morocco and Marrakesh. Our group was also great, and, in my opinion, this is partly down to the guide, who knew how to bring out the best in everyone so that everyone took part and interacted at each stop; the places we visited during the tour were very interesting, and at the end, Mr Mouhssine also gave us some excellent tips for visiting the souk. A superb tour

Great tour to start trip

Stephany_A, Jul 2026
This is a great tour to start your trip. Guide was very knowledgeable and provided a lot of history. He also showed us some places where one could buy things at the market. Tour was about 4 hours but guide always tried to look for shade. Definitely bring a hat, sunglasses, wear sunscreen and water. Some of the entrance tickets were not included so you had to buy them at the entrance, definitely make sure to have cash on you. The tour was worth it because it was very informative.

Mo was great!!

Claire_R, Jul 2026
Mo was very knowledgeable and great fun! Lots of walking. The pharmacy was nice little extra and we appreciated the tea!

This is a comprehensive overview of Marrakech. Our guide, Yassine, was both friendly, entertaining, and knowledgeable. It was a great way to spend our first morning.

Ali was great fun!

Jasmine_M, Jun 2026
Ali was a great guide and had a really fun sense of humour. He gave really thorough and easy-to-understand explanations of the history and details of the palace and tombs. He was also great at answering a range of fun questions about the language and culture of Marrakesh which was brilliant for us! Just a note for those booking - this is not a guided Souk experience/tour, we didn't get into that at all really!

Fantastic Experience

Husna_A, Jun 2026
To be honest, our guide Yassin was very entertaining and spoke English quite well. He was friendly, welcoming, and made the experience enjoyable from start to finish. He shared interesting information throughout the tour, answered our questions patiently, and kept everyone engaged. His positive attitude and sense of humor made the day even more memorable. We truly appreciated his professionalism and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fun and informative experience.

Sol_P, May 2026
We never made it to the walking tour, because the guide never showed up!! Awful experience to be in hot Morocco weather!

Response from Host, Jul 2026

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are very sorry to hear about your experience, as this is certainly not the level of service we aim to provide. We understand how frustrating it must have been to wait in the heat, especially if you were unable to join the tour. We would appreciate the opportunity to investigate what happened, as our guides are instructed to be at the meeting point before the scheduled start time. Please contact us with your booking details so we can look into this matter and assist you accordingly. Hamza and Moments in Morocco Team
